Blue Ivy Carter Narrates ‘Hair Love’ Audible Book

Blue Ivy Carter may only be eight years old but that’s not stopping her from being a boss.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s daughter has been tapped to narrate the audiobook version of Matthew Cherry’s Oscar-winning animated short film Hair Love.

Just moments ago, Cherry tweeted out an audio snippet of Blue Ivy reading the title of his work, as well as the cover artwork for it.

Cherry and producer Karen Rupert Toliver won an Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film for the incredible project, which portrays the touching story of a Black father who learns how to style his young daughter’s hair while his wife is in the hospital.

Hair Love marked only the second time a Black man was awarded an animation Oscar while Toliver became the first Black woman to receive the honor. Kobe Bryant was the first when he won an Oscar for Dear Basketball in 2017.
